Product Description

The Keyence FS-N11P is a compact digital fiber optic amplifier designed for precise object detection in industrial automation applications. As a main unit in the FS-N series, it features a single PNP open collector output with a maximum current of 100 mA, suitable for integration into larger sensing systems. The amplifier utilizes a red, 4-element LED light source and offers multiple response time modes, including High Speed (50 µs) and Mega (16 ms), to accommodate various detection needs. Its robust design ensures reliable performance in environments with ambient light levels up to 30,000 lux, operating temperatures ranging from -20°C to +55°C, and resistance to vibrations and shocks. The FS-N11P is ideal for applications requiring precise object detection, such as in semiconductor manufacturing or packaging lines.​
